Reflections for Police Officer Thomas Joseph Morash

I went through the Howard County, MD Police Academy with Tom, but it didn't take long for him to decide he belonged back in Florida. He was great guy and liked by everyone, and could always be counted on to make you laugh (without trying).

Hey Thomas I know you can hear me up there in heaven. I just want to say that since our days together in the police academy (Class 69) It has really been a very somber mood for everyone that has ever had the pleasure of meeting you and getting to know you as I have. Our law enforcement family has truly lost one of the finest human beings to ever don a policeman's uniform. I miss you brother. May god bless your lovely wife and daughter and continue to keep them in his care. Rest in peace my brother. D/S Merrill Riou

God bless you fellow rider. You may rest easy now. We will continue the watch. You will not be forgotten.

We were on the way home from a trip when we saw your procession passing by on I-95. We were in awe at the number of motormen leading you on your final ride to heaven. We were deeply saddened when we saw a truck carrying your bike on a trailer and it was then that we realized a fellow motorman had passed.
May God be with your family at this time.

I attended your funeral yesterday. Never have I ever been so emotionally moved. I've never met you, but in the life after this one, you touched me to my soul. I listened to the stories about you, your the officer we all wish to be like. You shall remain forever in my heart and mind and I shall continue to strive to be as giving as you were. This tragedy will not be in vain.

Rest easy brother, we will take it from here.

TOM WAS ON OF MY FTO'S WHEN I ARRIVED AT THE WEST PALM BEACH PD OVER TWO YEARS AGO. SIMPLY PUT, HE WAS ONE OF THE NICEST PEOPLE I EVER MET. IT WAS AN HONOR TO RIDE WITH HIM, AND SERVE FOR HIM IN THE HONOR GUARD IN HIS TIME OF NEED.
GOD BLESS YOU TOM. WE'LL MEET AGAIN SOMEDAY.

Tommy Boy,
It was just yesterday it seems as we were parked next to each other talking about life as we have seen it and experienced it. It is so tragic that life is cut short for someone who was so special to me in many ways. You and your family will always be in my prayers and I know you will watch over them as you will watch over us as we deal with everyone else's issues. It is not fair and I will never understand it, but I want you to always know that "2253" as you were known and as I was at one time with live with me forever-Brother. I miss you and we will park again one day, as MotorMen always did. God Bless You and your Family.
